  • Fluidhand7 | Vincent Systems

    2004 - Fluidhand 7 Up The Fluidhand 7 is designed as an experimental hand. It is used to develop new control methods and to test a new tank system that is capable of storing energy. The hand therefore has one valve for each of the 8 drives. A type of spring accumulator was developed for the hydraulic tank, which allows the hand to be closed quickly and silently without the hydraulic pump operating. Due to the large number of new and experimental components, the metacarpus has turned out to be significantly larger than the previous model, but at this stage of development, the anatomical shape and size of the hand is not a priority. For the hydraulic system, experiments were carried out with a tank that allows energy recovery when the hand is opened. The tank consists of a rigid outer shell and an elastic tank bladder inside. Between the outer shell and the tank bubble is a two-phase gas under constant pressure of 2 bar. In the intermediate space, just enough gas is formed from the liquid aggregate state until a constant pressure is reached. When the hand is opened, gas is formed; when it is closed, it is compressed into liquid, at a constant working pressure of 2 bar at room temperature. The internal diaphragm with the hydraulic fluid is thus under the pressure of the gas. When a valve is opened, a finger joint is already moved without the hydraulic pump having been activated. The pump can then build up even greater grasping force with a time delay. In this way, very dynamic and also noiseless finger movements are possible. When the drives are emptied, the water is pressed back into the tank, against the pressure of the two-phase gas, and the system is ready for the next grasping process. Up

  • Fluidhand2 | Vincent Systems

    1999 - Fluidhand 2 Up The new planar technology for manufacturing fluidic drives and kinematics was therefore ideally suited for actively moving miniature catheters and endoscopes. However, the forces achievable with planar film drives, which operate at a working pressure of 0.5-1 bar, were too low for the construction of an artificial hand. To generate higher grasping forces, a correspondingly higher working pressure had to act in the fluidic drives. For Fluidhand 2, “artificial muscles” based on thin silicone hoses were therefore used, which were sheathed with a flexurally flexible, stretch-resistant fabric made of polyamide. The tubes of the Fluidhand 2 were unfolded in the finger joints. When subjected to an overpressure of up to 4 bar, the joints expanded unilaterally and realized a curvature in the opposite joint direction. Each finger of the hand has two pneumatic muscles, the thumb has three, the wrist has four. The extension is done by a rubber band. The joint and support structure in the fingers, thumb and hand, was made of fiber-reinforced composite material. The artificial hand scored with its consistently soft and compliant structure, very fast movements and pronounced adaptability when grasping. The grasping forces achieved were around 2.5 N per finger. Objects heavier than 500 g could not yet be grasped with this hand. As in Fluidhand 1, the hand was driven by compressed air, which meant that a powerful compressor was required to operate the hand. Up

  • Development history | Vincent Systems

    History of the Fluidhand and the VINCENTevolution 1998 Fluidhand 1 thin foil soft robot hand with 5DOF, 5iDOF This first soft hand consists of thin foil layers, which have been joined together to form more complex drives in a sandwich construction. Five fingers, built up from 6 foil layers each, functionally welded in pairs, with the middle two foils forming the skeletal structure filled with epoxy resin. The outer two foil layers each form a fluidic muscle. For this purpose, two thin films were welded together in such a manner that chambers were formed in a row and connected to each other. When this structure is inflated with a gas or liquid, it contracts by about 20% of its length, similar to the natural muscle, and the finger curls up like a bow. Read more 1999 Fluidhand 2 silicon tube soft sobot hand with 16DOF, 11iDOF The new planar technology for manufacturing fluidic drives and kinematics was therefore ideally suited for actively moving miniature catheters and endoscopes. However, the forces achievable with planar film drives, which operate at a working pressure of 0.5-1 bar, were too low for the construction of an artificial hand. To generate higher grasping forces, a correspondingly higher working pressure had to act in the fluidic drives. For Fluidhand 2, “artificial muscles” based on thin silicone hoses were therefore used, which were sheathed with a flexurally flexible, stretch-resistant fabric made of polyamide. Read more 2000 Fluidhand 3 rubber bulg soft hand prosthesis with 10DOF, 1iDOF With the third generation of the Fluidhand, Schulz transferred the technology of flexible fluid actuators to a hand prosthesis. To achieve higher grasping forces, the drives were modified for grasping even heavy objects. The unfolded silicone tubes reinforced with fabric were replaced by miniature folded bellows, which in turn were encased in fabric and attached to aluminum joints in the folds by nylon threads to keep their shape. Three drive elements in each finger, with the two distal bellows coupled together, and two drives in the thumb allow 14 joint axes to move in this hand, equivalent to 14 DOF at 10 iDOF. The fluid actuators were driven by means of miniature hydraulics. The control system, consisting of pump, valve, electronics, sensors and tank, was connected to the prosthesis via a hose approximately 1 m long. The hydraulic unit was the size of a portable telephone and was worn on the belt. Read more 2001 Fluidhand 4 rubber bulg soft hand prosthesis with 10DOF, 6iDOF The Fluidhand 4 has 10 flexible bellows drives, each of which, when pressurized, angles an aluminum joint by 90 degrees. Stretching is achieved by suction of the drive medium and by additional elastic bands. Each long finger has two drives that are fluidically coupled to each other and each leads to a common control valve in the metacarpus. The thumb has two individually movable drives, each of which is actuated by a separate valve. The drive medium is water. This hand prosthesis operates hydraulically for the first time. A miniature pump draws the fluid from an elastic reservoir in the forearm and pumps it at up to 6 bar via the valve bank into the bellows drive chambers. The pump and valves are controlled by a microprocessor in the hand, and the prosthesis wearer gives the control commands via myoelectric sensors. Read more 2002 Fluidhand 5 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 8DOF, 5iDOF The Fluidhand 5 was designed with the aim of integrating all system components of miniature hydraulics into the metacarpals in order to make the hand compatible with established socket systems. The prosthesis can be connected to all standard prosthetic sockets via a quicksnap wrist. Both the myoelectric sensors and the energy storage of the socket are used. The pump, fluid tank, valve bank and controller are located in and on the metacarpus. With the reduction in tank size, the number of fluidic drive was reduced to 8. The ring finger and little finger are flexed over one drive each. In the weight-optimized frame in sandwich construction, the elastic finger abduction was integrated. Five valves control the 8 drives of the hand, with the ring, little and middle fingers being hydraulically connected to each other. Read more 2003 Fluidhand 6 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 4DOF, 3iDOF The Fluidhand 6 is a particularly compact version of the hydraulic hand prosthesis, reduced to the essentials. The index, middle and ring fingers are each moved in the base joint via a flexible bellows drive, the little finger is mechanically coupled to the ring finger, and the middle finger is hydraulically coupled to the ring finger. The thumb is actuated in the basic joint. In this way, the thumb and index finger can be moved separately, while the other fingers move together. The 4 drives are controlled by a 3 valve bank, the miniature pump sucks distilled water from a pressure storage tank to pump it into the drive chambers. The weight of the hand is about 350 g. The aluminum fingers were covered with a PU foam. In the basic joints, all long fingers have an elastically mounted abduction.

The bellows in the index finger and middle finger are each hydraulically coupled with each other, and the drives of the ring and little fingers are also connected with each other via a common valve. The special feature of this further development is that the metacarpus has been replaced by a hermetically sealed pressure body. Inside the metacarpus is an elastic tank in the form of a diaphragm, in which both the drive medium (vegetable oil) and the control electronics, valves and pump are integrated; all system components "float" permanently in the drive medium. Between the pressure body shell and the diaphragm there is again a two-phase gas with a constant pressure of 2 bar. Read more 2006 Fluidhand 9 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 5DOF, 5iDOF The Fluidhand 9 has 5 drives of different sizes. The base joints of the index finger and middle finger are equipped with stronger drives. The elastic fluid tank is located in the wrist. When the fingers are emptied, they are stretched and the fluid is pumped from the finger joints into the elastic tank in the wrist, bending the wrist and opening the hand further. The pump is noise-isolated and free-swinging in a CFRP tank; valves and controls are located in the metacarpus, which is completely covered with CFRP. The thumb with a drive in the base pivots between flat hand and opposition position to the three-point grip. Read more Juni 2009 Der Startschuss für Vincent Systems fällt.

  • Fluidhand6 | Vincent Systems

    2003 - Fluidhand 6 Up The Fluidhand 6 is a particularly compact version of the hydraulic hand prosthesis, reduced to the essentials. The index, middle and ring fingers are each moved in the base joint via a flexible bellows drive, the little finger is mechanically coupled to the ring finger, and the middle finger is hydraulically coupled to the ring finger. The thumb is actuated in the basic joint. In this way, the thumb and index finger can be moved separately, while the other fingers move together. The 4 drives are controlled by a 3 valve bank, the miniature pump sucks distilled water from a pressure storage tank to pump it into the drive chambers. The weight of the hand is about 350 g. The aluminum fingers were covered with a PU foam. In the basic joints, all long fingers have an elastically mounted abduction. At this stage of development, experiments were carried out with different variants of the fluid hand, with the number of joints and drives as well as the required valves being varied considerably. The aim was to find an optimum between size, anatomical design and weight on the one hand and functionality on the other. Extremely reduced versions with only 4 drives and three valves, such as the Fluidhand 6, were built, which could be designed in this way to be very small, light and anatomical. This version of the Fluidhand is a particularly interesting candidate for a robust prosthesis suitable for everyday use, since the smallest number of hydraulic components was installed here. The systems are very light throughout, but also very complex in terms of the physical effects that occur, such as cavitation or the problem of changing material parameters, especially the elastic drives and connecting hoses in the course of operation, as well as wear and corrosion on the valves and the pump.

  • Peter's Story | Vincent Systems

    Peter tests his VINCENTevolution while swimming, diving, and stand-up paddling—waterproof, robust, and intuitively controllable. Close A Day of Swimming, Snorkeling and Stand-Up Paddleboarding – with a Myoelectric Hand Prosthesis By Peter Until now, I was never a strong swimmer. When I was in the water, I enjoyed diving and jumping off boards much more. It never occurred to me that it would be possible to swim freestyle or take part in water sports with my VINCENTevolution4 myoelectric hand prosthesis, until Stefan Schulz, CEO of Vincent Systems, asked whether I would like to try something new. He had developed a new product that would allow me to enter the water while wearing my binoic prosthesis. Of course, curiosity won. Before I knew it, my prosthetic socket was fitted with the VINCENTaqua neoprene sleeve to make it waterproof. The VINCENTevolution4 itself is already designed as a waterproof myoelectric prosthetic hand. Stop 1: Outdoor Swimming Pool! After pulling on the neoprene sleeve, we went straight into the water. We started with freestyle swimming. At first, I felt uncertain. I wondered whether the socket would withstand the water without damage. As far as I knew, no one had ever used a myoelectric hand prosthesis in the water and then confirmed that it still functioned afterward. But once I fully entered the pool and realized I could still control the prosthetic hand even though the socket was completely underwater, all doubts disappeared. The prosthesis functioned just as reliably as it does on land. Swimming freestyle with a prosthetic hand felt unusual at first, but also surprisingly natural. I adjusted the bionic hand into its natural grip position, similar to how I would normally shape my hand for swimming. The swimming movements felt intuitive from the beginning. They came almost automatically. Stop 2: Quarry Lake! My prosthetic hand and the neoprene sleeve meet the IP68 protection rating, which is currently unique for a myoelectric hand prosthesis. This means the technology can withstand a water depth of up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. Naturally, I wanted to test that. I quickly learned that it is better to put on diving fins while already in the water. Using both hands, I was able to pull the fin straps over my heels and adjust my diving mask. Stefan and I began snorkeling and then diving underwater. I managed to reach nearly two meters in depth. Even underwater, I was still able to control the prosthesis and give Stefan a hand signal to show that everything was okay. After the successful dive, we moved on to stand-up paddleboarding. First, I had to find my balance to avoid falling off the board. Then I needed to determine the best grip position for the prosthetic hand in order to hold the paddle securely. After a short time, I was able to steer the board safely. It was a lot of fun. Overall, I was positively surprised by how intuitively I could use the waterproof bionic prosthesis in, on, and under the water without constantly worrying whether it would withstand the conditions. It was a day full of new experiences that helped break down a mental barrier for me. What the VINCENTevolution4 prosthetic hand delivers in terms of robustness and everyday usability truly represents a new level in modern prosthetic technology. It frees my mind from limitations that had previously been part of my daily life.

  • Fluidhand8 | Vincent Systems

    2005 - Fluidhand 8 Up The Fluidhand 8 has 8 drives that are controlled via 5 valves. The bellows in the index finger and middle finger are each hydraulically coupled with each other, and the drives of the ring and little fingers are also connected with each other via a common valve. The special feature of this further development is that the metacarpus has been replaced by a hermetically sealed pressure body. Inside the metacarpus is an elastic tank in the form of a diaphragm, in which both the drive medium (vegetable oil) and the control electronics, valves and pump are integrated; all system components "float" permanently in the drive medium. Between the pressure body shell and the diaphragm there is again a two-phase gas with a constant pressure of 2 bar. The integrated design allows any space reserves in the metacarpus to be used as a fluid reservoir, while at the same time forming a maximum gas volume for preloading the hydraulic tank. The pump can draw directly from the environment and the pump, valves and electronics are optimally cooled by the surrounding liquid. The design makes the hand very compact and at the same time extremely stable. Due to the very flat metacarpus of 30 mm and the short design, the hand achieves an anatomical shape and with only 410 g it is particularly light. The Quicksnap wrist closure makes the prosthesis compatible with all stem systems and their power supply. The prosthesis is controlled by two EMG electrodes integrated in the prosthesis socket. Simple trigger switching signals can be used to switch between pre-programmed grips and the grips can then be controlled proportionally. For the first time, a sense of touch has also been integrated into the prosthesis. The grasping force measured on the index finger via a sensor is transmitted to the system controller, which activates a vibration motor on the hand that transmits coded information to the prosthesis wearer about the force applied. In addition, the Fluidhand 8 serves as a test platform for new prosthesis controls such as grip pattern recognition or motion control using 3D sensors, research areas on which the research center has been working intensively as part of the Fluidhand development.

With 21,400 trade visitors from 92 countries, 623 exhibitors and over 300 speakers, the event reaffirmed its role as the world’s leading trade fair for the sector. Vincent Systems was, of course, once again part of this special industry gathering. Our interdisciplinary exhibition team was supported by users who presented our latest developments live. The focus was on the VINCENTevolution5, the latest generation of Vincent hand prostheses. It impressed with its uncompromising waterproofing, expanded customisation options and additional features such as freely assignable buttons and LED displays on the back of the hand – combined with proven characteristics such as high precision, strong grip strength and artificial sense of touch. In addition, we presented the VINCENTyoung3+, the world’s smallest multi-articulated hand, as well as our myoelectric, passive and body-powered partial hand systems. Another highlight was the neo1 exoskeleton, which was demonstrated live and offered insights into its versatile applications in therapy, rehabilitation and everyday life. Furthermore, Vincent Systems played an active role in shaping the conference programme with the workshops ‘Innovative control of myoelectric hand and partial hand systems’ and ‘Myoelectric exoskeleton for the upper limb: Luna Neo’. We would like to thank you for your keen interest, the many discussions we’ve had, and the valuable exchange of ideas, and we are already looking forward to seeing you again in Leipzig.
